4. Australia

In the wake of last month's massacre in Christchurch, New Zealand, Australia has passed a sweeping new law to stop the spread of violent content online. Under the new law, which passed both houses of Parliament today, internet companies such Facebook and Google will be compelled to stop the spread of violent material. If they don't, executives could face serious fines or jail time. The Christchurch suspect livestreamed a large portion of the attack online, and Facebook and other platforms were criticized for their slow response. This is just the latest change the region has made in response to the tragedy: Just days after the attack, New Zealand's government passed a gun law banning military-style, semi-automatic weapons.

5. Tesla

Telsa just reported the biggest sales drop in its history, and while a weak first quarter was to be expected across the board on Wall Street, the electric car company needs to continue making money to pay off its sizable debts. The logistics of international orders is one factor that contributed to the dip, as did the lags between consumers purchasing a model and then actually having it delivered. While this was certainly not a shocking development for Tesla, it probably doesn't help that CEO Elon Musk is heading to court against the US Securities and Exchange Commission. The SEC is asking that Musk be held in contempt over violating a settlement agreement reached last year requiring him to get pre-approval for social media posts about his company.
